Great Location, Clean & Dog-Friendly Beach House

We had a wonderful stay at this beach house in Miramar Beach. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to the beach and within easy walking distance to shopping and dining. The house was very clean and comfortable, which made it easy to relax and enjoy our time there. A couple of minor updates would make it even better: the blinds could use attention, as many didn’t work properly, and some of the rugs are worn with corners turned up. These were small issues and didn’t take away from our overall experience. We were especially happy that the home was dog-friendly, which made our stay even better. Overall, a great house and we would happily stay here again.

Beautiful home! Great location!

We had such a wonderful stay in this immaculate, beautiful home! The neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful and the beach access was 3 doors down, making walking to the beach so easy. The home was equipped with everything needed for a very enjoyable stay, and the home and furnishings were very well maintained! We are already planning another visit for next year!

Perfect getaway

This was the perfect location. Private access to the beach, shops and restaurants close by. Pet friendly and absolutely beautiful Only thing was the smoke alarms would go off when using the oven and not all the blinds would open properly, but these things are minor compared to the access this place provides

Beautiful Home, great stay

The property was absolutely beautiful and perfectly furnished. I loved how close it was to the beach and the pool. Luckily the weather for our stay was excellent. The only downside to the property was that the bunks were not very long...basically only small children, not teenagers, can fit it them.

Comfortable and great location

The house was very comfortable and we especially loved the back deck so we could hang out comfortably while we grilled out. Even though there is a lot packed into this area, the house still felt quiet and private. The location was great and the walk to the beach really is short and manageable. I love that the walkway has so much shade - definitely made walks on a hot day much easier! We really enjoyed our time and this was a great place to stay.
